@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
last night was the science-fiction
movie with you and me
you in your velvet space-helmet
me in my rainbow hat
if you'd write my lines
I would gladly play father-time on your tv-show
you got the wilderniss lipstick
and I got the penmarking
you are great, yeah you're a star
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
it's morning in heaven, again
LA is lost in the clouds
so I sings goodbye skylines
and I will sadly sing you off to our next episode
I'll make the most of my time, machine
and I'll build a theremin
you'll be great, you'll be a star
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
everyone will know
who they are
may you climb high
into the sky
may ratings rise
once I learn these lines
I will madly sing lullabies
into the unborn fans
you write the bible and I'll
read it off my eyelids
and we'll be great, yeah we'll go far
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
everyone will know
who they are
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
everyone will know
who they are
last night was the science-fiction
movie with you and me
you in your velvet space-helmet
me in my rainball hat
movie with you and me
you in your velvet space-helmet
me in my rainbow hat
if you'd write my lines
I would gladly play father-time on your tv-show
you got the wilderniss lipstick
and I got the penmarking
you are great, yeah you're a star
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
it's morning in heaven, again

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Blue

Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
